How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Benter
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Benter. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
